Lumberjocks i finally purchased a bandsaw talking about it for three years. I got a G0457 bandsaw from grizzly. I asked a few of you a couple of years ago what kind i should get. And most people said a 17 in bandsaw. I thought about it through out the years and decided to get a 14 inch. The main reason was the size of my shop. I did not want to croud it no more then it is. The G0457 is wired for 220 it has a lot of power. I received it last Thursday and put it together Saturday. It is a awesome saw. I purchased a wood slicer blade and put it on and it cuts wood so clean. i had no problems with shipping. The only issue i had, Grizzly they did not put a manual in the box. I downloaded a manual from Grizzly. I am very pleased with my saw.
